¡tempUnit1

,

_

¡tempUnit2

)

expression _

¡tempUnit2

Converts a temperature value specified by

expression1

from one unit to another. Valid

temperature units are:

_

¡C Celsius

_

¡F Fahrenheit

_

¡K Kelvin

_

¡R Rankine

For example, 100_

¡C converts to 212_¡F:

To convert a temperature range, use

@tmpCnv()

instead.

tmpCnv(100_¡c,_¡f) ¸ 212.ø_¡F

tmpCnv(32_¡f,_¡c) ¸ 0.ø_¡C

tmpCnv(0_¡c,_¡k) ¸ 273.15ø_¡K

tmpCnv(0_¡f,_¡r) ¸ 459.67ø_¡R

¡tempUnit2

)

expression _

¡tempUnit2

Converts a temperature range (the difference
between two temperature values) specified by

expression1

from one unit to another. Valid

temperature units are:

_

¡C Celsius

_

¡F Fahrenheit

_

¡K Kelvin

_

¡R Rankine

1_

¡C and 1_¡K have the same magnitude, as do

1_

¡F and 1_¡R. However, 1_¡C is 9/5 as large as

1_

¡F.

For example, a 100_

¡C range (from 0_¡C to

100_

¡C) is equivalent to a 180_¡F range:

To convert a particular temperature value instead
of a range, use
